One of the only indpendent estates in the area of Pauillac. This mainly Cabernet Sauvignon delivers classic aromas of cigar box, spice, and cedar over brooding dark black fruit. It’s a powerful, strong, wine right now, densely textured with packed-in black currant and blackberry fruit accented by notes of baking spice, cedar, and tobacco. Still really a baby, but if you are drinking now give it a proper decant
